In this paper we present a general solution for two-dimensional boundary inverse heat conduction problems, by using the conjugate gradient method of minimization together with an elliptic scheme of numerical grid generation. The direct problem, as well as other auxiliary problems, are formulated in terms of generalized coordinates in a computational domain, where they are solved by finite-differences over a rectangular region. Simulated measurements are used to illustrate the application of the present approach with a practical inverse problem of engineering interest.

Keywords: Boundary Inverse Problem, Conjugate Gradient Method, Function Estimation, Numerical Grid Generation, Generalized Coordinates.

The use of parallel computing in Computational Fluid Dynamics problems has greatly increased over the past few years, placing an important and useful tool in the hands of scientists and engineers. This works discusses the implementation of a solution algorithm for the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations using parallel computation techniques. Program SCYL is written in FORTRAN 77 and utilizes the message passing library PVM to distribute and control computations between different computers. After discretization the resulting system of algebraic equations is solved using an iterative procedure. Convergence is acceleratedwith the use of multigrid. The parallelized code running on a cluster of Pentiumä processor machines displays good speed-up when compared to the serial version.

The present work deals with the numerical solution of the Navier-Stokes equations, written in the stream function-vorticity form, by the finite difference method and acceleration techniques using multiple meshes. The classical method (storage of the correction) and the method FAS (Full Approximation Storage) have been tested. The results obtained clearly show that a very efficient computational scheme has been achieved with the multigrid method. For example, when comparing this method with the basic SOR method, relative gains in processing time in the order of 80% have been obtained.

COB755 APPLICATION OF THE UNIFIED FINITE APPROACH EXPONENTIAL SCHEME TO THE CAVITY PROBLEM

Dr. José Ricardo Figueiredo

State University at Campinas, FEM, DE, 13083-970, Campinas, São Paulo, Brazil

This paper presents the application of a new discretization scheme for convective-diffusive fluid transport equations to the Navier-Stokes equations. The scheme is a conservative-form discretization constructed within the control-volume approach employing an exponential interpolating curve obtained as the exact solution of an approximated equation that admits a source term, which is computed by incorporating Allen’s finite difference approach into the finite volume method. It has been called the Unified Finite Approach Exponential Scheme, UNIFAES. A simple one-dimensional test case shows the scheme’s ability to cope with irregular grids The main test problem considered is the recirculating flow in a cavity due to a moving wall, where UNIFAES demonstrates accuracy superior to the conservative form schemes central differencing and simple exponential scheme.

Pattern formation in a thin layer of fluid heated by below is often studied by numerical integration of nonlinear parabolic equations, containing fourth-order space-derivatives in the x and the y directions. A finite-difference semi-implicit coordinate-splitting scheme of first order in time and of second order in space is developed and applied to solving two such equations in finite geometries, namely the Swift- Hohenberg and the Knobloch equations. The construction of the scheme is accomplished by assigning terms to the implicit and to the explicit parts, and by replacing the spatial and time operators by discrete representations. The stability properties of the algorithm are defined at this stage. The scheme is splitted in two equivalent equations, to reduce the storage requirements. The resulting algebraic linear system displays a left hand side operator with a pentadiagonal structure and is solved by gaussian elimination with pivoting. Some results and a criteria to characterize the asymptotic state are presented.

This paper reports numerical results for incompressible thermally-driven flows in tilted cavities obtained with a point-wise solution scheme. The discretized momentum equations are applied to each computational cell and then, together with the mass-continuity and energy equations, are solved directly for each grid node. The effect of cavity inclination on the thermal field is discussed upon. Flow pattern and mass residual behavior are also reported.

The Navier-Stokes equations, written in conservative form, are applied to simulate the flowfield in a two-dimensional convergent-divergent transonic nozzle. A finite difference formulation is used to perform the spatial discretization in a generalized coordinate system. The march in pseudo-time is performed by the implicit Euler method to obtain steady state solutions. Three implicit, approximately factored, difference schemes are described and tested in the present work. These include the standard Beam and Warming algorithm, Chaussee and Pulliam´s diagonal version of it, and the Steger and Warming flux vector splitting scheme. Several options for spatial discretization of the split fluxes are studied in connection with the Steger and Warming scheme. The main objectives of the present work are to perform a comparative study of the different algorithms and to assess their cost/accuracy performance characteristics.

Multigrid methods have been used for predicting flows achieving considerable computational time savings. In the present paper, a multigrid method has been applied to a finite-volume numerical solution of a 2-D conductive-convective problem. Structured and regular grids of different sizes were employed. Internodal interpolation has been achieved through the Weighted Upstream Differencing Scheme, which depends upon the computational Peclet number Pe . A study on the effect of the number of distinct grids on the overall algorithm performance is presented. Also reported is a comparative study of the computational effort as a function of Pe.

This paper presents an investigation on the solution of the linear systems arising from the numerical discretization of the Navier-Stokes equations through Voronoi grids. Three techniques are utilized and compared for evaluation of the pressure gradients: the minimum squared residue, the weighted mean between the projected normal gradients (MPGNP) and the modified weighted mean between the projected normal gradients, through a modification of the MPGNP. They are validated, adoting for the case of the incompressible flow in square cavity with sliding upper wall (driven cavity) with slide upper wall. All numerical results are obtained in distinct geometrical grids.
